“P.E. 2000 (Spanish Remix)”
Forever

“Stereo Love” by Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina

Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987)
Well, if the previous album, The Final Cut, was a Roger Waters album, this one is David Gilmour. It’s funny how these two albums are so completely the opposite of eachother. I prefer this one though, if I was to choose between the two. You can pretty much guess …
